I would allow it, it's brilliant. The main learning benefit of cheat sheets comes from writing them, not from using them.
- This. Most classes in uni allowed us to have a limited number of cheat sheets and after writing them I rarely used them. Open book exams are a different beast though.
  
  One of my math professors would always ask if people wanted an open book take home exam or an in person exam. Those who had taken his classes before knew to never vote for the take home open book, but were always outweighed by the new folks. Hardest exams I took in college by a large margin
  
  I take certification exams that are open book. I still create an index aka cheat sheet because typing it out makes me internalize what I’m reading. It’s also easier to refer to an index of a couple of pages vs several books in a time-bound exam.
- As someone who spent a few years teaching math, this would be a cause for celebration! I would have had a classroom pizza party the next day. This is creative usage of problem solving math that I could only dream about a classroom of students could come up with.
- A great teacher would surreptitiously plant the idea to do this.
- Depends on the class.
  I had a statistics course that allowed us one single sided page, but as long as your printer could handle infinitely small print, she didn’t care if you had magnification. You could hypothetically have keychain bible print for your entire book as a cheat sheet, it just wouldn’t help you in the allotted time.
  My cheat sheet for R was nothing but codes because I’m not a coder at all (R and basic Linux are my entire coding experience, and it was fucking miserable) and that helped if I remembered to label the fucking codes. And LOL nope.
  But I cheated in other classes by doing such nonsense as writing vocab on my shoes… in college language courses, which I paid for myself.. so dumb and counter productive.
  I was never smart enough to cheat in regular school.. I just brute forced the work.. ironyyyyyyyyy
- Reminds me of a final exam in university (engineering course) where the Prof said we could use one double sided sheet. I wrote it in red and blue pen and brought 3D glasses. It was helpful for duplicate things with different info like some tables. I barely used it, but I thought it was clever and funny

First mistake was to not specify a sheet size
- OK, based on the comments, it's AI.
  This one isn't. A sheet of paper from mythbusters.
  
  Telltales: floor too shiny, machines on the sides dont make sense, inconsistencies in piping in the ceiling, random floating bits on the top right, a few big shadows that dont match the windows instead of many smaller ones
  
  This image… I don’t know if it is AI or it isn’t… but it certainly feels like AI…

Heard of someone writing in multiple colours and using tinted transparent plastic sheets to read it.
- Clever

Should have specified that the paper must also be orientable
- I think that might be racist.
  
  At the very least spaciesist.

I wouldn't even be mad. As long as they could explain what a Mobius Strip is, they can use it.
- just points

I mean, defining the cheat sheet limitation in such a way for Math students is really just asking for it ...
- If the parameter is that it’s 1 sided then you don’t need to be this creative, just have a longer sheet
  
  I think the joke here is the one sided part. Paper sheet has two sides.
  The shape student is using is called möbious strip and its pretty famous mathematical object for being shape with only one plane. Another one is Klein bottle and im sure there are other ones too.
  
  Yeah, but that would make them have two sides, one (or both) with writing on it.
  
  "That's like 3 yards of class notes! That's ridiculous!"
  "What? Oh this? No I just got a pack of gum at CVS real quick."
  
  drapes the entire class in his giant sheet of note paper
  
  Inefficient though

Something something sheets are planar, but then also allow it because it's great.

I'm no math teacher but I'd call that worth extra credit!

Relevant xkcd.

Should get bonus points.

How else are you going to have a 1-sided sheet?
Hmm. Would the surface of a sphere qualify as a sheet? But I feel that is cheating. The inside would count as another side if you could only get to it.
- Not if the sphere is solid!

Id only allow it if it was a seamless piece of paper (not taped together) lol
- i don't think that's fair because such papers don't exist
  
  Glue and lots of patience and skill and it can.
